15 weeks.



This is a week late, and I've yet to take pictures for my current 16 week bump, but whatever. These pictures were taken last week on the 3rd.

How far along: 15 weeks.
Weight gain: 2 pounds below my pre-pregnancy weight.
Maternity clothes: Not much. Just the occasional maternity leggings and t-shirts. I'll have to do the ol' hair elastic trick every now and then, too.
Stretch marks: None.
Sleep: Horrible! I'm not in the habit of going to the bathroom before falling asleep, and so I'll wake up to pee, and then stay up for hours at a time. It's the worst thing so far this trimester.
Best moment this week: Feeling little baby kicks! I started feeling them at around 14 weeks, and it's one of the best feelings in the world!
Miss anything: Good sleep. And not being winded after walking up the stairs.
Movement: Yep! The softest and tiniest little kicks, but they're there!
Cravings: Restaurant food and cold, fruity drinks.
Queasy or sick: Nope. I think I'm completely passed the first-trimester nasties!
Looking forward to: Starting the nursery. I've been in full-on nesting mode lately, and I should really probably do something about it before it goes away!

13 weeks.




How far along: 13 weeks. Finally in the 2nd trimester and feeling waaaaay better than a couple of weeks ago.
Gender: Don't know yet. I'm not sure if we're going to find out.
Weight gain: I lost 6 pounds since getting pregnant, which was weird, because I gained and gained with Franz. 
Maternity clothes: Only wearing maternity shirts because they're fun and new. Most of them are way too big right now though.
Stretch marks: None.
Sleep: Sleep is pretty good. I used to have to wake up more often than I do now to go to the bathroom, but I'm able to sleep through the night pretty well now. I just have to pee the first thing in the morning.
Best moment this week: Celebrating Franz's 2nd birthday with a train ride downtown! It was the most perfect day.
Miss anything: Being able to eat lots and lots (ha!). I can only eat regular portion sizes now because my stomach is so crowded. I guess that's a good thing.
Movement: Sometimes I'll think I feel a little flutter or push, but at this point I'm not sure if it's the baby or not.
Cravings: Cold fruity drinks, cold water, and mashed potatoes mostly. A few weeks ago I only craved meat. That's done now though.
Queasy or sick: A little queasy every now and then, but feeling much better now.
Looking forward to: Feeling kicks, seeing baby on the ultrasound screen, and getting a big belly! Oh, and Thanksgiving next week!
